MODERATORS
As former QA I also agree with this chart.
As a designer who turned into a developer, had to do minor server stuff, manage my own freelance projects and debug it all…
I quit and started working in old cars and handyman stuff. Not a Luddite, but fuck marketing, temporarily organizing pixels, and spying on users for pennies.
As a current sysadmin I concur.

As a former sysadmin, I approve this message.
Sysadmins for the win!
Yup. It's perfect.
This image is older than current CS students
My 2026 update after the industry wide layoffs over the past couple years and continues with ai over leveraged taking more down with it would be sysadmin replaced with DevOps, qa and designer replaced with developer, and throw some infosec theater on at the end.
As a network admin, the sysadmins are a bunch of fucking monkeys.
Don't be jealous just because we can do your job as well as our own.

Doesn't look like project managers come off good to anyone, then. Even themselves.
Cause their one good generative AI prompt from being replaced!
I love how designers are seen as infants twice (and a monkey once)
and as evil megalomaniac once
I have found they are the most likely to have lower computer literacy than they need to be for their job. It's not optional, no SysAdmin should have to babysit someone.
Top left should be a clown, source I'm a developer.
As a former sysadmin, this is correct.
My dad’s a sysadmin, this is definitely correct.

Its true.
IT is true
Sysadmins don't give a fuck about the lesser disciplines.
Yes, but can you tell me what “IT” stands for?
Involuntary Twitching?
Can you? I've been a sysadmin for thirty years. Guess.
What does it stand for? What doesn't it stand for?

In my job, I put on all five of those hats in the same day.
And how do you see yourself?
I guess a corporate slave /s
No need for the /s brother. We are all wage slaves.

The "seen by project managers" row is so accurate it hurts. It needs to be updated with a caption that reads "chatGPT please tell me how to replace this person with a subscription".
As long as we can all agree users are the worst
I disagree. I am designer, project manager, QA, and Sysadmin at my small company, and I am the worst.
High pixel version?
Nah you get lower pixel version
You must be a sys admin. I used to be and that was my first instinct.

I know one of the people in this chart, small web
Hi I'm a designer and this image is correct.
I was a sysadmin for decades and I can confirm this is pretty accurate.
To be fair - fuck sysadmins.
Not if we fuck you first.
While you think sysadmins are your enemy, you are you own enemy and we are just trying to save you from yourself.
